And here silicon valley is the land of Eichlers... Great read.
- briandear 7y agoAnd interestingly, Eichler was also about building houses for the common man as well. Ironically, Palo Alto Eichlers seem to be selling at $2.5 million+ these days. Not exactly a “common man” house. But design heavily influenced by the Bauhaus and very beautiful. SoCal has Neutra, we (Bay Area) have Eichler, and they all seem to derive from Bauhaus. There is also Dieter Rams and the influence of Bauhaus on him and product design — which then influenced Ive and Apple which then of course, influenced Samsung. And it all started with one dude in Germany. Fascinating!
